About The Author

Indrajeet More

Indrajeet More is a Mumbai-based film-maker and illustrator who loves documenting people, languages, food and cultures. In 2021, he completed his BA in philosophy from Ramnarain Ruia College. After four years of directing food shows, travel series and sketch comedies for a Marathi content platform, he transitioned to independently creating content. His works range from films, comics and writing.

From working as a bartender at a hostel in South Goa to filming the daily life of a seventy-year-old Himachali weaver, learning tango in Auroville, painting walls in Varanasi, sharing food with fellow passengers on train journeys, pretending to work in cafes and following camel herders of the Thar desert–backpacking fuels Indrajeet’s curiosity and helps him understand people with more empathy.

Solo is his debut book. He also shares his journey stories on Instagram @my_blue_backpack.
